Handbook of Civil Procedure in the Massachusetts District Court
This seminar will review the four basic stages of civil money damage actions in the District Court and Boston Municipal Court—commencing the action, securing defendant’s assets during the litigation, obtaining judgment, and getting the judgment paid. For each stage, the focus will be on identifying and explaining specific procedural dangers to avoid and opportunities to exploit—for both the plaintiff’s attorney and the defendant’s attorney.
